Because of the fragility of the glass, fewer and fewer of these clocks with their original domes have survived and the skill of making these domes alone has become a lost art. $ 9800 or best offer. (shipping in the US with insurance $150.) (Note: Because of the fragile nature of the glass and clock, I will ship the clock and glass dome separately. The glass dome will first be bubble wrapped and placedin a cardboard box. This will in turn be bubble wrapped and placed into a larger box for shipping. The clock itself will also be carefully wrapped in a similar manner)
